Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>Former Seychellois politician Kersley H. St Ange passed away on Sunday September 4, 2022 in Durban, South Africa where he was residing since many years.<\/b><\/p>\n

Kersley St Ange is the brother of Alain St Ange, the former Seychelles Minister for Tourism, Civil Aviation, Ports and Marine. The former has played his own part in Seychelles politics before seeing his assets compulsorily taken over during the island\u2019s One Party State Government of the Second Republic.<\/p>\n

Kersley St Ange is the eldest son of the late Karl St Ange. He was by his father\u2019s side when the family hotel \u2018Cabanes Des Anges\u2019 was being constructed in 1972 as tourism started in earnest in Seychelles. This was big development for the island as it was only the second hotel on La Digue Island that came soon after the opening of the first tourism establishment the \u2018Choppy Bungalows\u2019 and its Odeon Bar.<\/p>\n

Kersley St Ange was a candidate in the 1974 general elections for the South Mah\u00e9 Constituency. He was again a candidate for the Plaisance electoral district in the 1979 People\u2019s Assembly Elections. Politics took its toll on Kersley St Ange after a fall-out with the hierarchy in power and the then President Albert Ren\u00e9 moved to take his cheese and yoghurt factory, the \u2018Laiterie des Iles\u2019, he had set up at Le Rocher with Mr Figerou as a partner who was a French national. This was just before the forced closure of the \u2018Fish Trap\u2019 small hotel and restaurant he had set up with his partner Allison Worrel at Baie Ste Anne on Praslin.<\/p>\n

Kersley St Ange then left the islands and had since then been living in Durban, South Africa with his wife Isabelle. He leaves behind Keri and Brigitte, his two daughters in Australia, the Superintendent of Prisons of Seychelles Raymond St Ange and two last sons \u2013 Andre in Germany and Gian Marco in Italy.<\/p>\n

Reacting on the passing of his elder brother, former Minister Alain St Ange said that he was \u201ca kind brother who sadly died away from his country of birth\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was my big brother, but also my Godfather. His last visit to Seychelles was for the wedding of my youngest daughter and he was planning for a 2023 visit. He has sadly left us all too soon and he will be missed,\u201d added former Minister St Ange in Seychelles.<\/p>\n
